Gideon fights to keep his distance. But somewhere between late-night meetings, unexpected honesty, and a launch gala that could change everything, the line between business and feelings begins to blur.</p><p>A warm, funny, slow-burn workplace romance about second chances, impossible choices, and the kind of love that changes the final offer.</p>
